The final night of the FIA World Rally Championship opening event in Monaco was the scene of crashes and stage cancellations. Once again Sebastien Loeb earned the 'Monte' win, and early points Citroen Total Abu Dhabi team.

Dani Sordo won the two runs through the super special stage today in his MINI John Cooper Works WRC and combined this with some more impressive times on the final day's five other stages to finish Rally New Zealand in sixth overall.
